Hello everyone, I just got the new "PRO" model of the Leadtek 64MB GeForce2 that has faster memory, etc., and this is my first GeForce2 card. What drivers are the best?

I want maximum performance of course, but maximum STABILTY is the most important thing. I have read the Det 3's were the drivers that gave the GeForce2 cards a performance boost, but there has been many updates on the Det 3's and I have no clue what to use. I noticed (in Anand's new DDR article), AMD said that some of the latest Det 3's don't work properly with 4X-AGP, but the earlier ones do. Why would newer drivers not support something that older ones do?

Of course 4X-AGP doesn't really give a boost anyway, does it?

Well anyway, what Det 3's should I use for maximum performance and maximum stability ?

I am building a new computer with ASUS A7V and AMD T-Bird if that matters.

Thanks for any help. :)


Edit- BTW, if anybody is getting ready to buy a new GeForce2, this new "PRO" model is available for about $335 (not $400 which a lot of places reported earlier), and they are discontinuing the regular 64MB cards.

This has faster memory, and is a good bit faster than the normal 64MB GTS, but not as fast as Ultra. But for $335, if you want something faster than the regular GTS's, but can't spend the $500 for Ultra, this is the ticket.

The latest ones should be fine really. You can grab them here.

BTW - I'd be interested in seeing some benchmarks if you do them :) Thanks.
